WEEK 10

This week we worked on starting our bridge proposal paper. The proposal is a paper that shows your whole entire project written out on paper. This usually includes sketches, data, graphs,statistics, daily journal, etc. This week we also worked on building our bridge prototypes. The prototypes should be done and ready to test within the next three to four weeks.

Week 9

This week we continued to work on building our prototypes. We also learned that Blake and I can not open locked doors. We both spent at least 20 minutes trying to open a door, that was locked, with Spiece's keys, which is probably about 50 keys. We also started our daily journal that is required for entering the competition. Lastly we started putting the charts we made a few weeks ago into the power point and the proposal.

Week 6

This week, we have drawn sketches of the truss designs and we have been prototyping ton figure out which truss design we are going to use. Blake is going to draw and build the Warren truss design.

Katie is going to draw and build the Baltimore truss design.
Sierra is going to draw and create the Pratt truss design.
We will use these prototypes to figure out of which one is the best choice.
